Pepi you mentioned names of crucial players that Manly should have locked up by now. I have stated that on several posts even before today's game.
Their position on the ladder should be better.....two draws and were robbed for another won with a double movement.
Can give the comp a real shot.
Good point Easton. Given that some players have been given the flick for next year, wouldn't it make sense to have a look at those in NSW cup that they may want for next year. Even blood a few of the 20's but hopefully they can make a good run at the semis but their draw is not good and without...
If true, doubt if the girlfriend will drop the charges like others have done.
Why do they drop the charges? Hmmmmm.
Mum may have learnt a bit in politics as a senator........
As usual.....one rule for one and another rule for others. Rorters always get things swept under the carpet. Politis' contacts would get me into heaven.
So much inconsistency in players' misbehaviour. Abuse of women is top of the list for mine. If he is charged should be stood down immediately...
Strange but have commented about our forward pack that went down narrowly to the Bullpuppies by a point last year.
Watmough, Stewart, Ballin and Buhrer were out.
Forwards were: King, Harrison, Lawrence, Symonds,Horo, Lui.
Bench: Hodges, Sene-Lefao, Hasson, Starling.
OK......don't tell me we...
Jake T's tackling technique is outstanding and those are the ones that hurt. Good hard, clean hits with plenty of power. Leads the way for the rest of the team. Very very impressive.
By all reports he has some talent and would be handy. Decisions are difficult as closeness to family, contract and friendship of playing group comes into it as well as the training facilities and chances of playing first grade.
Do we have any players or coaches with Donkeys' connections ...
Did Cecchin ref the 20's as well. Sounds like they had a try disallowed to perhaps draw the game. Players seemed to be sure if was no double movement. Anyone at the game can comment please?
Very costly loss for them. Think Tom T should be moved down to help?
Jake T has been our most effective forward in most every game. I am not a supporter of Matteo anywhere in this team. Obviously the decision makers may think so too.....tap tap?
Yes but he was a few kilos less when he was good.
Looking at points tables Sydney teams won't want to go north to play semis. Refs will give them the benefit of doubt at Suncorp and inlfluenced by crowd and Cowboys will play the "we've been robbed" bit for the past few years.
